Description ▲
Thomas Carrington's drawing, 'Ned Kelly at Bay' is an Australian icon - the armoured outlaw calmly firing his revolver at surrounding police in the Glenrowan bush. Press artist Carrington was eyewitness to the siege at Glenrowan and his drawings make up this uniquely dramatic portfolio, illustrating the text of his account. His work is described by Ian Jones as 'vivid and personal', capturing 'a powerful sense of what it was like to be there'.
